What surgery would I need to fix this asymmetry? (Photo)

ShinyShay
One of my eyes is almost bulging out and has a way bigger eye lid than the other. Would I need an orbital decompression surgery with an upper blepharoplasty or something else? What procedure would I need to make this eye symmetrical to the other? I don’t have thyroid or Graves’ disease and no tumor behind my eyes thankfully. It’s just a genetic thing considering my parents also have asymmetrical eye shapes.
